This one is for Pommie! Pommie was the first one to guess the Neil Peart drum solo video I did about a month ago based on a few generic clues, so as promised… this was one of the suggestions of a video they’d like to see in the future. As I mentioned on my community page, this one was a bit tough. While I love the guitar solo and the light show in this performance, I prefer the album version of the song. It’s still an amazing version, don’t get me wrong. Since it was a live performance, I can’t quite say I technically heard anything new that I hadn’t heard before, but the reactors were absolutely correct in that the ending guitar solo was very emotional. In fact, it didn’t affect me throughout the editing process, but when I watched the final video in its entirety before uploading, I got a little misty. Lol I HIGHLY recommend: Submotion Orchestra - Finest Hour (Album Version): ruclips.net/video/qPllDPnDsX8/видео.html
Thank you for doing this, WonderMommaOG! I can only imagine how difficult the editing process must be. This is my favorite song of all time, from my favorite band of all time and my favorite guitar solo of all time. (The only thing missing from this particular performance was Roger Waters, a huge part of what made this tune the best piece of music that ever was). Thank you, you're the best, WonderMomma!
great job as usual, WM. great choice Pommie!! I also am a big Floyd fan and actually just went to see Nick Mason and the Saucerful of Secrets in Boston thursday, in a small sold out theater of 1,600.
I’ve heard this a hundred time and know every word, but I’ve never seen it. Thank you! It’s awesome. It is so great it doesn’t feel real. Comfortably numb indeed.
I'm 67 yrs old and got to experience all of the wonderful and incredible music through the 60's , 70's, and 80's from ALL genres of music. This younger generation has missed out on some of the best music in 100 years.
No they havent, and that's the beauty of it. They can hear from Monteverdi to, I dont know, any new artista.. Post Malone. They can hear renditions and renditions of Paganini more than any other person 20 years ago and before, and listen to some pop music live. They can hear the creation of blues, rock, jazz, and basically any genre that you may think, and even those that you dont know. Anyone who's interested enough can and will learn much more than one who did 50 years ago.
Hah! You kids today, I swear! I’m 75 and I have only recently come to realize that the rock music I grew up with is actually great and a fair amount has stood the test of time; I did not expect that, believing it to be transient and unserious. There is actually some great music and musicianship mixed in there.
Thankfully, no one has missed anything. It is still alive today thanks to reaction videos and the succeeding generations re-discovering it. We were blessed to have so many talented musicians releasing music that stand the test of time. Now we are seeing the results of the testing... and it remains as great now as when it came out. Even this performance was 15 years after the original release, and it even surpasses The Wall track in its musicality and expression. To me, David Gilmore is the GOAT (and that is saying something!)
The guitar solo for Comfortably Numb was voted as the number one solo of all time in Rolling Stones magazine. I was at this same show in Madison Wisconsin. The crowd went crazy just like in the video. It was the best show I have ever been to.
I'm not crapping on the solo (though I prefer the one in Time over this one) but Rolling Stone is also the same magazine that didn't even bother to rank Prince in their top 100 guitarists of all time. Jann Wenner is a pompous wanker and I really wouldn't use any list he dabbled in as testimony for anything.
I saw this show in Oakland Stadium, California I swear, at the explosive final note, the stage emitted a huge smoke ring … which was SUCKED BACK IN just before the lights went out I don’t know how to explain it
I’m pretty jealous. It’s been 32 years since the first time I heard this song. Watching people hear and react to this piece of amazing art for the first time makes me so happy. Welcome to outer space. Whether you wanted to go or not, David Gilmour’s solos will send you to there.
Yup. Did it twice. Seeing a video and actually being there live are two totally different things. I remember the first time I saw David play this live and I thought, "Is he ever going to let me go?"
@scottrackley4457 The video, as good as it is, doesn't do justice to actually being there. I genuinely feel sad for everyone who will not be able to experience Pink Floyd live.
And the 11th Commandment was written...Thall shalt not ever interrupt a David Gilmour guitar solo

Rock on. I found Rock & Roll in the early 70's. Since then I've been to 30+ concerts. In 1994 I went to the Pink Floyd Pulse tour and was blown away by Comfortably Numb, Time and The great gig in the Sky. At the concert in Oakland Cal they had an 8 foot round Disco Ball rose out of the stage and was shot with lasers. The entire Stadium looked like moving liquid plasma.That was during the 2nd guitar solo.
Couldn’t agree more. I was smiling the whole way thru . Gilmour said Jeff Beck was a big influence and it shows. I’m grateful to have both artists by a huge part of my life’s musical journey. Merry Christmas to you
Got to admit one of the best things about being Gen X is knowing that we had the best and y'all know it because we showed it to you, but we lived it and continued every day of Our Lives
I´ve been a guitarist for more than 20 years, playing professionaly for a long time now. The years, the countless hours studying books, scales, styles, techniques, the philosophies behind the making of music, of creating and interpreting, seeing yourself getting old with that instrument by your side: It all comes back to this. This particular solo. It´s not only the pinnacle of a particular style of playing, or instrument, or even of a music genre. It is the absolute best example of why you do it and how to do it: to convey pure, raw emotion in the listener, to take them back wherever they want to go, to be that vehicle for them. Every now and then, when life as a musician gets too hard and i´m about to quit it all, I come back to it and remember why I keep at it.
It doesn’t matter how many times I’ve seen/listened to this, it still gets to me. NO ONE can make a guitar convey emotions like David Gilmour. Utter perfection.
Tears still are wrung from my soul each time I hear this masterpiece. That is an ocean since 1979. There will never be another band like Pink Floyd and David Gilmour is still the greatest at pulling emotion out of a guitar
The woman in the pink shirt who was crying - I think that was how many people felt when they heard The Wall album for the first time. I heard it for the first time maybe 10 years after it came out. I listened to nothing else for 6 months. This song isn't even my favorite from this band, but I know what this woman is feeling. It's great to see that it can still has this affect all these years later.
I first heard this when it was released in 1979 on The Wall album. I was 11 years old and I could live to 111 years old and never hear anything better than this. Music today has taken so many steps backwards. To any artists looking for inspirations please look back and realise we had a golden era that sadly will never be recaptured.This is a masterpiece that can never be bettered.
Music has not taken a step backwards, its rather commercial music which has gotten repetitive, following computer analysed algorithms. If you spend the time and if you are actually willing to not be prejudiced towards something new, you will find gems! I can promise you that. I listen to both this times music as the old ones, I agree that Pink floyd has reached a level that no one can beat but todays artists arent too bad either!
@@mirai.. Nobody buy albums anymore, so the discography lost the big money, nobody today could never pair what Pink Floyd earned (Nick Mason once said that he sometimes feel embarrassed to think about how much money they have earned). One example: Lunapop an Italian band unknown outside the Italian peninsula, sold more copies of its debut album in Italy than any Justin Bieber album in the entire world. It's the same that happens with movies, streaming platforms will never be as profitable for producers as theaters. Pink Floyd and Rolling Stones are in the top of the highest grossing tours still today. An artist can become the Pink Floyd only with total freedom, and today this don't exist. It's what Scorsese said about Marvel franchise: mass-produced movies, marketing products all equals, where the director counts for zero or almost nothing; the same as theme parks. And these mass produced movies and music suffocates authorial products. This is one side of the problem. The other side is that nobody has anything to narrate to the public. The western world is too much wealthy (in all senses) and static, so much so that we waste time talking about frivolous bullshit. Maybe the pandemic, the Ukrainian war and the climate crisis will change something in the future.
This was part of the Division Bell tour in 1994. They did 3 dates in Philadelphia and I was lucky to attend 2 of them. Every time I watch/hear this live clip, the emotion I felt those nights comes back in such a manner that it is overwhelming. Thank you for putting this together. I have Pulse on CD and DVD and I should break them out more often. David Gilmour is such a treasure. His contribution to music has been immeasurable and the music speak for itself. I am forever grateful that I got to be on the third rock from the sun to hear and see this first hand.
I thought this was from Pulse which was around that time. I remember going into Camelot Music, I’m truly aging myself with that remark, and got the box set and it had the small light on the front that pulsed.
Pink Floyd takes me to a place far away from life's problems. Their music is like no other band with David Gilmore's guitar work and all his heart and soul he puts into it.
Im 67 and was at this recording at earls court London 1994, i have seen Floyd six times live five of which they played comfortably numb I'm so lucky and feel very privileged to have had that chance and experience in my life... Thank you Pink Floyd 👍
I have been to a Pink Floyd concert-- and the transcendence is real! It was as though the entire venue was out of body levitating on the waves of light, music, and unity! A special, special, special, experience. 💗
I'd seen Pink Floyd 3 times before they brought this tour to the San Francisco Bay Area ( Oakland Coliseum ) in 1994. I waited in line for 3 days and got tickets to all 3 shows. It's always been a joy to turn someone on to something they've never heard / seen before. I really enjoy the multiple reactions and emotions here.
David rips his heart and soul, serves it directly to ours, deeply out of deepness and leaves us rethinking our existence. This is how the music is supposed to speak to us.
That was not a giant disco ball. It was the spaceship that takes David Gilmour home after each show.

I'm glad my grandson introduced me to youtube, I can get my daily dose of my favorite bands, on my phone. I saw them live in 1994 at the Oakland Coliseum. It was greatest concert I ever attended. Not just the Music, but the Laser light show was Awesome. I just turned 68 years old. Rock on, Shedmen

They shot lasers at that huge Disco ball and turned the stadium into a flowing liquid plasma. It was like the entire crowd doing "The Wave" for about 7 minutes. Shedmen
Thank you so much for reacting to this. I was in high school here in North Carolina when this song was originally released in 1980. I remember it well. My friends and I loved attending concerts. It was one of the things we loved doing together and one of the big things young people did then. My wife did the same thing during that time period as well. There were a huge number of wonderful groups at the time and concerts were not very expensive to attend. Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Boston, Journey, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Triumph, 38 Special, Foreigner, and many others. I cannot describe to you what a wonderful time it was to be young then compared to today. We were happier, relationships were closer, life was more carefree, and the music was spectacular. Our 4 adult children (29-33) love 70’s/80’s music just as we do. My heart just aches that young people will not get to experience life as we did as teenagers in the 70’s/80’s. Again, thank you so much for posting this video. It was a wonderful treat.
Sitting here watching this reaction compilation for the umpteenth time, I get emotional watching it each and every time. Because it's just so crazy how universal this song is. You can't listen to/watch it without feeling the guitar solos and going there with the vocals. This is high level art, zen. But what impresses me just as much is that there are people like you who are willing to put intense effort into creating a compilation of reactions that tell the story of how universal it really is. This compilation is a massively technical undertaking, must have required days of work, I just want to say thank you. It's a service to the rest of us that, I don't think, has really gotten the appreciation it deserves. Thank you, again!
Very kind words, thank you. Yes... they are definitely lots of work but the rewards are that I'm not the only one who sees how amazing music is. So thank you for taking the time to let me know.
I was lucky enough to attend main road manchester 8/8/88...the gig was meant to be on the 1st but was postponed because they did extra nights in london. So they performed darkside after the main concert. I was right at the front leaning on the barrier. Never will i experience anything like that again.
I would hope at some point, these reactors would listen to the whole album, as it tells a story... Love these reactors. Welcome to the PInk Floyd fan base. ❤
I've seen this live many times on different tours of the band and band members. I cried a few times. Everytime I was in heaven. My favorite guitarist and band, by far.
I was at 2 shows of this tour....Cleveland and Pittsburgh. The technical crew somehow managed to make the stadiums sound as if you were laying on your couch listening on a top of the line stereo system, not to mention the lights, lazars, effects and video screen etc. Definitely the best concert experience ever to this day.
The lyrics to this song are amazing, that goes without saying. But what gets me is the guitar solos, both of them gave me the chills. Thanks for putting this one together, you have made my day
One of the guys said epic,best description. I've been to close to 100 concerts and Pink Floyd Pulse concert was EPIC!! It still gives me chills watching it. There's no way there will be any better,ever.
Thank you, WonderMomma, for taking on such a huge task, and putting out an outstanding product. I can’t imagine anyone with the ability to do this justice besides you. Pink Floyd is a big part of my musical youth. I have their albums and saw them live in the mid 70s - a transformative experience. 💖
@@WonderMommaOG Completed Justice. You did it. I just watched your Lynyrd Skynyrd One moments ago. Free Bird is practically an national anthem and you did it justice too.
I just watched this video for the 3rd time, but I never get tired of seeing the expression that the listeners of this song have. No one can remain indifferent to this music, which leads you to the sources of your emotions. And WonderMommaOG knows better than anyone how to bring these emotions together. Well done WonderMommaOG.
😍👌💥💯🎶 There you go folks! D. Gilmour and his Fender hardly ever fails to catch your soft spots... 😉 All the points, props and grains of sand to our OG MOMMA's bag for this compilation. (and there's nothing wrong to feel 'misty' while listening this gem of Classic Rock ✌️🥰) 🤘😎🇫🇮💙
This was voted best guitar solo of all time by Planet Rock listeners, Freebird came second. Hard to imagine this ever being beaten or any solo even coming close to replicating the emotion this make you feel. I am 61 and i cry very time i hear it! It takes you to a place beyond the numbness in my best quote here. Amazing edit so appreciate the effort taken to give us this compilation. Awesome effort!
I remember seeing Pink Floyd live in the late 1980’s at Western Springs in New Zealand with 60,000 other people and its something once seen and heard can never ever be forgotten. Live that guitar solo sounds exactly that, alive.
I grew up listening and its so beautiful seeing the current generations listening! It gives me chills! I love all of you so much! Awesome channel! Keep going 💪💪❤️😍🔥🔥
My generation had the best music hands down and we were lucky to have the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s music. 3 decades of awesomeness. I talk and brag about the music I grew up with to anybody and everybody who will listen. I am almost 61 years old now and I am hell-bent on keeping this music alive. I preached it to my kids growing up and now my grandkids. I tell my kids all the time when I die the torch is yours make sure you keep this music alive. I often wonder who will fight over my collection of vinyl. Keep this good music alive y’all we’re counting on you.✌🏻😎
It's just not the same. There are no touring bands like back in the day. I live in a smaller midwestern town, Iowa City. Late 70's early eighties here, there were 2-3 very good bands playing at different venues every weekend. The first year the arena opened here, I saw Fleetwood Mac, The Police, Billy Joel, Joe Walsh, Yes... They don't even have concerts there anymore. Bands just can't get good together by playing anymore. A lot of producing and sampling.
@@patrickorourke2369 that is more true for some areas but I go to concerts all the time. In the last nine months I’ve seen Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, America, Daughtry, Doobie Brothers, Tears for Fears, Loverboy with Styx and REO Speedwagon who toured together and then the last one I went to was Commodores touring with Santana. On average I go to about 6 to 10 concerts a year.
The World could use a moving song right about now. This is truly a moving experience for anyone who loves music and where it takes you, Loved everyone's reaction. Great job putting this video out, Bravo!
This song has arguably the greatest guitar solo to EVER be played live. David Gilmour is a guitar good! MammaOG you should do some more Gilmour and show them what he’s really like outside of the Pink Floyd songs.
We saw Pink Floyd’s Pulse concert twice. It’s was soooo awesome! Had to see it twice! Their music seems so loud but I’ve never walked out not being able to hear after the show. Sound is so perfect every time! They are definitely a show Not to miss! Love love love Pink Floyd ❤️
Who has seen the wall movie? This song is about Pink as a baby remembering his father, “Just a fleeting glimpse out of the corner of his eye”. But then his father went to war and was killed. So Pink grew up always wanting a father but “the child has grown, the dream is gone”.
Oh yeah, another Floyd popped up and from Pulse, so Im def on it. The KShavon Crew had me crying dedicating this song to me in a rough wk. Ive so been to that point of high emotion listening to them like, HalfLifeSistah's reaction, Thanx so much, take care, Peace
I love the original recording of "Comfortably Nunb" off the "Wall" album, but to see them perform "Comfortably Numb" live was one of the greatest things I have witnessed in my life!
Not only is the music and performance just beyond words and one of my favorites, but I have to say I was thinking about how long it must’ve taken you to edit this compilation so I truly appreciate that you added your process at the end…amazing work!
That my friends is what we called Head Music in the 70’s. You didn’t need drugs for the head trip - but they did make it more fun. Got to see them live and it was incredible
Каким нужно быть гением, что бы написать такую музыку, которая вызывает такие эмоции у людей. Мне 70 лет и я слушаю и слушаю это чудо, душа вырывается наружу от этих звуков.
One of the things that I love about the visual element of this concert performance is that it gives perhaps a more hopeful interpretation of the song. Early in the song the colors are muted and relatively dim. But as the second guitar solo continues and our hearts soar the colors become more vibrant and bright until the "soul" at the center of the performance literally *opens* *up.* It becomes almost a refutation of the _The_ _Wall_ -- or perhaps an example of how your life can change if you learn from it.
Wow….what a fantastic interpretation. The original recording, the movie to it, it all lays out a very heavy falling into dystopian madness, and that’s literally where the character in the album and the movie goes from here. But, this line performance, 40 years later, it’s light and wonderful. Refutation, absolutely.
I bought the DVD the week it came out, and the first time I saw this my goosebumps had goosebumps! I've lost track of how many times I've seen it, and at the moment I have tears in my eyes. It is GREAT to see young people actually being turned on to what has been my favorite Band since 1969. THIS is MUSIC!!!
Thank you for that! I would like to share with you one of my Instrumentals that was very much influenced by Pink Floyd and David Gilmour in particular. I recorded this in 1992 on an 8 track machine. I am playing every instrument. I hope you enjoy it. (It's quite emotional.) ruclips.net/video/Du-h_2o3H68/видео.html
I saw them in concert, 1994, Giants Stadium and they played this song. They had speakers set up all around the stadium. It was complete surround sound. It was absolutely amazing. And the visuals were next level. It wasn't a concert. It was a voyage.
I think your best video yet! David Gilmour, making people cry with his guitar for 50 years. So awesome seeing younger folks feel it for the first time. I saw this show in Foxborough, MA. and it changed the trajectory of my career in stage production.
To live in that time and to hear them play live was nothing short or a miracle. When this and other Pink Floyd songs came out in the 70’s and 80’s we did not have cable TV, GAME CONSOLES, CELL PHONES AND A HOST OF OTHER THINGS the younger generations have to get in the way of life. We had music and artists like this and we lived our lives by the songs they sung and how it impacted us and our lives. There are MANY great artists from this era that you should listen to, so many I cannot put them all down here, but Pink Floyd was the best. When a new album came out everyone ran to the records store. The closest thing we had to MTV was each Friday’s ‘Wolfman Jack’ show that came on at 10;30pm and everyone would gather around the TV to hear live bands play. It is good, you the younger generations listen to music like this because it will BRING YOU BALANCE! Put your phones down; your tablets down, your Game Center’s and turn the lights down, get a black light bulb and listen. You will be free’r than you have ever been in your lives. Trust me; trust our baby boomer generation because w lived it!
Seeing the "making of" at the end always drives home the sheer amount of work and creativity that goes into these. So glad I subscribed. It also helps me discover new reactors too. 😊
Another superb compilation. Actually, my first time seeing/hearing the Pulse performance of this. I was pleasantly surprised by how close to the studio version it stayed, for the most part. And wow, that reaction by HalfLifeSistah! I really _felt_ that. Loved the fingerstyle acoustic rendition at the end.
I keep forgetting how old i am watching these reactions. But it does feel good knowing that these works of art will stand the test of time. Thank you for putting the hard work. God bless you
David Gilmour & his strings of emotion … he is my absolute favorite! No flash or hype just pure emotion and magic !! Love Pink Floyd !! 51 years & counting
I always feel like that solo is David pouring out his life's blood for the crowd. Pure emotion expressed through his art. Also from a technical/creative end your edditing of all those different sources into a coherent whole is amazing. You have a real talent.
Dave Gilmour made that guitar cry in anguish. What a musician! Very glad that he also introduced the world to Kate Bush - maybe he felt his own genius wasn't enough and we needed more, haha! I used to play in bands, and watching this and feeling the emotional charge from that stage makes me miss it more than ever. There's nothing like it if you're an intensity junkie.
Such a wonderful montage...thank you so much 😊... So well done. My first time on your channel...and I'm so old I can tell you I was there live October 1994 twice 🎉🎉 Love your efforts ❤
These are some of the most perfect moments rock music has ever produced. I love to see so many eager to partake. May none of us ever feel comfortably numb in our own lives.
With everyone's reactions it proves that you don't just listen to Pink Floyd, you experience it. This is my favorite PF song. It is the most relatable lyrics for me. Between the words and David Gilmore's guitar work brings out emotions that are overwhelming at times. Always appreciate when people hear PF for the first time and how they react to songs like this and to "Money", "Wish You Were Here", "Time", "Another Brick in the Wall", and so many others.
David Gilmour has one of the most versatile voices in music. Gorgeous. Saw them live during this tour. Rain was coming down and the lasers were pulsing. It was a spiritual experience.
Great job as usual Momma. This song, this VERSION, is one of the greatest live versions of any song EVER. Love that you chose it. Amazing editing as well. 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I find it insane how a piece of music exists that’s so powerful you can create a reaction video of people listening to it and they’re all simultaneously either vibing with it, bobbing their heads up and down, standing up and playing air guitar, sat in awe, literally shocked with their eyes wide open and their jaws dropped and even crying and hyperventilating, only music that truly comes from the soul can do that
I've been listening to this song since it first came out and I was a young teenager. How it STILL gives me Chills, I don't know. I am 57 years old now, it's still my favorite song, of all time, and I love watching young people and first time hearing Reactions. Watching folks moved to tears and really digging it. You guys should Google how Roger Waters came about the idea for the lyrics to this song. Pretty interesting. Rock On!!! Kodama Metal, your face is one of total amazement and I love it.
Dude... what a incredible work that you do. Masterpiece of edition. I listened to this song 25 years ago, as a teenager. That is so good to see decades later people having the same reactions... Cheers from Brazil!
Same, Ricardo! Was completely blown away by this when i was a kid. And to now see it getting the recognition from the younger generation. It's amazing. Great music endures time.
Everyone is talking about the guitar solo. Yeah it's pretty good isn't it? I've been listening to it since the late 70s. While not nearly as often, I still haven't tired of the sound. Now it is accompanied by many memories. My comment here is more to say what great editing you've done making this compilation. Excellent work, thanks for the video!

I also am a big Floyd fan and actually just went to see Nick Mason and the Saucerful of Secrets in Boston thursday, in a small sold out theater of 1,600.
I prefer the album version also but this is still a fantastic version
I’ve heard this a hundred time and know every word, but I’ve never seen it. Thank you! It’s awesome. It is so great it doesn’t feel real. Comfortably numb indeed.
Still haven't heard a guitar solo in the past 40+ yrs that slaps me like this one. No shredding, just screaming emotion in every note played.
I've NEVER heard a guitar solo ever that slaps me like this one.
Free Bird?
There definitely hasn’t been a solo that invokes a visceral and emotional response like this one.
Try pink floyd on the turning away. It has a great solo
Gary Moore empty rooms live in Stockholm is epic
A whole new generation of Pink Floyd fans .. welcome ❤️
I’m 70 years old, and have listened to Pink Floyd, my whole life. And I cry through this whole song, it just touches me
This.
You and me brother am 67 and I know how you’re felling. ✌️
54 years old. Same.
I don’t cry but it is amazing.
What r some of these people listening to, their head movements make no sense
Thete are people who can play music, then there is Pink Floyd
Gilmour doesn’t plug his guitar into an amp, he plugs it into your soul!
amen!
Into his rather.
@@paulwebster3417 Questa mi è piaciuta proprio.👍🤟
😂100%
How so?
The young man who said that we’ve gone backwards is spot on, the gods& genius of bands that walked the earth in the 70’/80’s were the best
No auto tune just raw talent
You won’t hear this in todays music been one of my all time favorites I remember Floyd when the started
Correction, late 60s and 70s were the best. 80s started the fake stuff, not PF but the rest of the garbage they called music!
@@jamesbrackett575awesome
It is called "DEVO", de-evolution.
This song still gives me goosebumps 43 years after the first time I heard it.
Me too.
25 years for me and I'm looking forward to get goosebumps as well once its 43 years lol
SAME HERE.
Everytime! One of the greats.
Me too!
Brings a smile to my face seeing younger folks experiencing pink floyd , not just a band but a experience
Ain't it the truth! Wonderful.
the best guitar solo in the history of music...ever...period.
I'm 67 yrs old and got to experience all of the wonderful and incredible music through the 60's , 70's, and 80's from ALL genres of music. This younger generation has missed out on some of the best music in 100 years.
No they havent, and that's the beauty of it.
They can hear from Monteverdi to, I dont know, any new artista.. Post Malone.
They can hear renditions and renditions of Paganini more than any other person 20 years ago and before, and listen to some pop music live.
They can hear the creation of blues, rock, jazz, and basically any genre that you may think, and even those that you dont know.
Anyone who's interested enough can and will learn much more than one who did 50 years ago.

Even this performance was 15 years after the original release, and it even surpasses The Wall track in its musicality and expression. To me, David Gilmore is the GOAT (and that is saying something!)
The guitar solo for Comfortably Numb was voted as the number one solo of all time in Rolling Stones magazine. I was at this same show in Madison Wisconsin. The crowd went crazy just like in the video. It was the best show I have ever been to.
I'm not crapping on the solo (though I prefer the one in Time over this one) but Rolling Stone is also the same magazine that didn't even bother to rank Prince in their top 100 guitarists of all time. Jann Wenner is a pompous wanker and I really wouldn't use any list he dabbled in as testimony for anything.
I know it by heart on my air guitar😂
I saw this show in Oakland Stadium, California
I swear, at the explosive final note, the stage emitted a huge smoke ring … which was SUCKED BACK IN just before the lights went out
I don’t know how to explain it
@@marklunn41 Sounds like "high times" to me..
@@marklunn41I wet to this show. It definitely was the best concert I have ever attended!
I’m pretty jealous. It’s been 32 years since the first time I heard this song. Watching people hear and react to this piece of amazing art for the first time makes me so happy.
Welcome to outer space. Whether you wanted to go or not, David Gilmour’s solos will send you to there.
Well said! 👍😎
You don’t go to a Pink Floyd concert to listen, you go to experience it.
Agreed
Agree
Yup. Did it twice. Seeing a video and actually being there live are two totally different things. I remember the first time I saw David play this live and I thought, "Is he ever going to let me go?"
@scottrackley4457 The video, as good as it is, doesn't do justice to actually being there.
I genuinely feel sad for everyone who will not be able to experience Pink Floyd live.
I SAW THIS LIVE! WE LEFT THE CONCERT SPEECHLESS! I was literally COMFORTABLY NUMB, we all were, no words for 30 mins after....it was dreamlike...
Saw them in 1988 in Orlando and in Tampa, Fl 1994……sooooo good!!!!!
I am so jealous!
Oh what I would’ve done to see them live
Yes I was numb for the entire concert ...during and after and still to this day .....❤ montreal 1994 ❤
God were we lucky those of us who were teenagers in the 70’s with all this genius, blessed ❤
We were VERY lucky. I don't know how many times we played this, first on 8 track then on vinyl and finally on CD.
YES YES crank it up !! Takes 4 0 yrs off. Love Peace n RESPECT xxx
Born in 1962!
and on the 7th day God created David Gilmour..... amen
So let it be written so let it be done
Sacrilegious, but true.
Genial jajaja, aunque seguramente tengas razón
Amen, hear hear,and a big huzzah.
And the 11th Commandment was written...Thall shalt not ever interrupt a David Gilmour guitar solo
Rock on. I found Rock & Roll in the early 70's. Since then I've been to 30+ concerts. In 1994 I went to the Pink Floyd Pulse tour and was blown away by Comfortably Numb, Time and The great gig in the Sky. At the concert in Oakland Cal they had an 8 foot round Disco Ball rose out of the stage and was shot with lasers. The entire Stadium looked like moving liquid plasma.That was during the 2nd guitar solo.
Best guitar solo of all time period
David Gilmore's wife once told a reporter that, David was never good using words but he could explain anything with his guitar
I hope that's true.
When I tell people about David Gilmour, all I have to tell them is that he can make a guitar TALK to you.
It is a beautiful thing to see how emotionally moved people were hearing this concert.
This is what the world needs now.
Couldn’t agree more. I was smiling the whole way thru . Gilmour said Jeff Beck was a big influence and it shows. I’m grateful to have both artists by a huge part of my life’s musical journey. Merry Christmas to you
Got to admit one of the best things about being Gen X is knowing that we had the best and y'all know it because we showed it to you, but we lived it and continued every day of Our Lives
Excatly
Boomers bro. Yeah, I said it. 😂 My little bro is a Gen X’er. His big bro taught him well. 😉🤘
Watching Pink Floyd live on the Pulse tour was the best experience of my life when it comes to concerts. It's mind blowing.
Got to see this show in an football stadium next to Stevie ray best concert ever.
WOW !!!
Tampa, Fl 1994, 3rd row front and center. Best ever!!
I´ve been a guitarist for more than 20 years, playing professionaly for a long time now. The years, the countless hours studying books, scales, styles, techniques, the philosophies behind the making of music, of creating and interpreting, seeing yourself getting old with that instrument by your side: It all comes back to this. This particular solo. It´s not only the pinnacle of a particular style of playing, or instrument, or even of a music genre. It is the absolute best example of why you do it and how to do it: to convey pure, raw emotion in the listener, to take them back wherever they want to go, to be that vehicle for them. Every now and then, when life as a musician gets too hard and i´m about to quit it all, I come back to it and remember why I keep at it.
Thanks for sharing that. That was amazing.
Pink Floyd's pauses, lack of words is part of their genius.
Sometimes silence speaks louder than words. 😏
It doesn’t matter how many times I’ve seen/listened to this, it still gets to me. NO ONE can make a guitar convey emotions like David Gilmour. Utter perfection.
Tears still are wrung from my soul each time I hear this masterpiece. That is an ocean since 1979. There will never be another band like Pink Floyd and David Gilmour is still the greatest at pulling emotion out of a guitar
Tears wrung from your soul? I don’t get it. What does that even mean?
I love watching people discover this great music that I was lucky enough to grow up with.
me too
Same here. I love the joy it brings all these people.
The editing on this video is simply incredible. It was showcasing the true love for this Pink Floyd masterpiece. Simply wow!
The woman in the pink shirt who was crying - I think that was how many people felt when they heard The Wall album for the first time. I heard it for the first time maybe 10 years after it came out. I listened to nothing else for 6 months. This song isn't even my favorite from this band, but I know what this woman is feeling. It's great to see that it can still has this affect all these years later.
I first heard this when it was released in 1979 on The Wall album. I was 11 years old and I could live to 111 years old and never hear anything better than this. Music today has taken so many steps backwards. To any artists looking for inspirations please look back and realise we had a golden era that sadly will never be recaptured.This is a masterpiece that can never be bettered.
Absolutely
Music has not taken a step backwards, its rather commercial music which has gotten repetitive, following computer analysed algorithms. If you spend the time and if you are actually willing to not be prejudiced towards something new, you will find gems! I can promise you that. I listen to both this times music as the old ones, I agree that Pink floyd has reached a level that no one can beat but todays artists arent too bad either!
@@mirai.. Nobody buy albums anymore, so the discography lost the big money, nobody today could never pair what Pink Floyd earned (Nick Mason once said that he sometimes feel embarrassed to think about how much money they have earned). One example: Lunapop an Italian band unknown outside the Italian peninsula, sold more copies of its debut album in Italy than any Justin Bieber album in the entire world.
It's the same that happens with movies, streaming platforms will never be as profitable for producers as theaters.
Pink Floyd and Rolling Stones are in the top of the highest grossing tours still today.
An artist can become the Pink Floyd only with total freedom, and today this don't exist.
It's what Scorsese said about Marvel franchise: mass-produced movies, marketing products all equals, where the director counts for zero or almost nothing; the same as theme parks.
And these mass produced movies and music suffocates authorial products.
This is one side of the problem. The other side is that nobody has anything to narrate to the public. The western world is too much wealthy (in all senses) and static, so much so that we waste time talking about frivolous bullshit.
Maybe the pandemic, the Ukrainian war and the climate crisis will change something in the future.
@@nicoladc89 u completely missed my point - i mean i can agree on what ur saying, Im just not sure why you are telling me this...
I was 18 when this came out, nothing better.
This was part of the Division Bell tour in 1994. They did 3 dates in Philadelphia and I was lucky to attend 2 of them. Every time I watch/hear this live clip, the emotion I felt those nights comes back in such a manner that it is overwhelming. Thank you for putting this together. I have Pulse on CD and DVD and I should break them out more often. David Gilmour is such a treasure. His contribution to music has been immeasurable and the music speak for itself. I am forever grateful that I got to be on the third rock from the sun to hear and see this first hand.
I thought this was from Pulse which was around that time. I remember going into Camelot Music, I’m truly aging myself with that remark, and got the box set and it had the small light on the front that pulsed.
This was Pulse concert, Earls court exhibition centre London 1994 . I know this because i was there and I've still got the T shirt and ticket stub.
@@seandobson6221 The recorded concert was Pulse, but the show was part of the Division Bell tour.
@@bgrising I loved the Pulse box set when it came out.
I was at night one in Philly best concert ever!!!
I was lucky enough to see them perform this live in the 90s. It was *literally* breathtaking. I genuinely hyperventilated.
I can't even begin to imagine what it would be like to hear them live. I'd gladly hyperventilate :-).
Pink Floyd takes me to a place far away from life's problems. Their music is like no other band with David Gilmore's guitar work and all his heart and soul he puts into it.
Im 67 and was at this recording at earls court London 1994, i have seen Floyd six times live five of which they played comfortably numb I'm so lucky and feel very privileged to have had that chance and experience in my life... Thank you Pink Floyd 👍
I have been to a Pink Floyd concert-- and the transcendence is real! It was as though the entire venue was out of body levitating on the waves of light, music, and unity! A special, special, special, experience. 💗
Amazing ❤ True music. True art. Gilmour, Mason, Wright, Waters. Unforgetables
I'd seen Pink Floyd 3 times before they brought this tour to the San Francisco Bay Area ( Oakland Coliseum ) in 1994. I waited in line for 3 days and got tickets to all 3 shows. It's always been a joy to turn someone on to something they've never heard / seen before. I really enjoy the multiple reactions and emotions here.
David rips his heart and soul, serves it directly to ours, deeply out of deepness and leaves us rethinking our existence. This is how the music is supposed to speak to us.
That was not a giant disco ball. It was the spaceship that takes David Gilmour home after each show.
I'm glad my grandson introduced me to youtube, I can get my daily dose of my favorite bands, on my phone. I saw them live in 1994 at the Oakland Coliseum. It was greatest concert I ever attended. Not just the Music, but the Laser light show was Awesome. I just turned 68 years old. Rock on, Shedmen
They shot lasers at that huge Disco ball and turned the stadium into a flowing liquid plasma. It was like the entire crowd doing "The Wave" for about 7 minutes. Shedmen
Thank you so much for reacting to this. I was in high school here in North Carolina when this song was originally released in 1980. I remember it well. My friends and I loved attending concerts. It was one of the things we loved doing together and one of the big things young people did then. My wife did the same thing during that time period as well. There were a huge number of wonderful groups at the time and concerts were not very expensive to attend. Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Boston, Journey, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Triumph, 38 Special, Foreigner, and many others. I cannot describe to you what a wonderful time it was to be young then compared to today. We were happier, relationships were closer, life was more carefree, and the music was spectacular. Our 4 adult children (29-33) love 70’s/80’s music just as we do. My heart just aches that young people will not get to experience life as we did as teenagers in the 70’s/80’s. Again, thank you so much for posting this video. It was a wonderful treat.
Sitting here watching this reaction compilation for the umpteenth time, I get emotional watching it each and every time. Because it's just so crazy how universal this song is. You can't listen to/watch it without feeling the guitar solos and going there with the vocals. This is high level art, zen. But what impresses me just as much is that there are people like you who are willing to put intense effort into creating a compilation of reactions that tell the story of how universal it really is. This compilation is a massively technical undertaking, must have required days of work, I just want to say thank you. It's a service to the rest of us that, I don't think, has really gotten the appreciation it deserves. Thank you, again!
Very kind words, thank you. Yes... they are definitely lots of work but the rewards are that I'm not the only one who sees how amazing music is. So thank you for taking the time to let me know.
Saw Pink Floyd in Germany in 1988 and to this day the absolute best concert I’ve ever been to. It’ll change your mind
Oh wow...I heard that was an amazing show!! Hell yeah...along with being a show from a great band, it was history.
I was lucky enough to attend main road manchester 8/8/88...the gig was meant to be on the 1st but was postponed because they did extra nights in london.
So they performed darkside after the main concert.
I was right at the front leaning on the barrier.
Never will i experience anything like that again.
I would hope at some point, these reactors would listen to the whole album, as it tells a story... Love these reactors. Welcome to the PInk Floyd fan base. ❤
I've seen this live many times on different tours of the band and band members. I cried a few times. Everytime I was in heaven. My favorite guitarist and band, by far.
Saw this live in 1987…one of the best concerts I’ve ever seen…it was incredibly loud but it didn’t hurt the ears
I was at 2 shows of this tour....Cleveland and Pittsburgh. The technical crew somehow managed to make the stadiums sound as if you were laying on your couch listening on a top of the line stereo system, not to mention the lights, lazars, effects and video screen etc. Definitely the best concert experience ever to this day.
Just goes to show that guitar solos don't have to be fast and shredded all the time. Goosebumps all over the place. Epic
That lady being emotional is so beautiful!!❤
Somebody posted that "Fender created the Stratocaster, God created David Gilmore to play it."
The lyrics to this song are amazing, that goes without saying. But what gets me is the guitar solos, both of them gave me the chills. Thanks for putting this one together, you have made my day
YAY! It took me a while as I was easily distracted from this one! Glad it brought you some joy. 😊
One of the guys said epic,best description. I've been to close to 100 concerts and Pink Floyd Pulse concert was EPIC!! It still gives me chills watching it. There's no way there will be any better,ever.
Thank you, WonderMomma, for taking on such a huge task, and putting out an outstanding product. I can’t imagine anyone with the ability to do this justice besides you. Pink Floyd is a big part of my musical youth. I have their albums and saw them live in the mid 70s - a transformative experience. 💖
Thank you so much, this was a difficult one and I was worried of doing it justice. Appreciate the kind words.
@@WonderMommaOG Completed Justice. You did it. I just watched your Lynyrd Skynyrd One moments ago. Free Bird is practically an national anthem and you did it justice too.
@@RockPowerUSA 😊Thank you. Means a lot.
me too!!!!!!! I'm 70 now,,, makes me cry EVERY time... but you have to play LOUD on a good system.
I just watched this video for the 3rd time, but I never get tired of seeing the expression that the listeners of this song have.
No one can remain indifferent to this music, which leads you to the sources of your emotions.
And WonderMommaOG knows better than anyone how to bring these emotions together. Well done WonderMommaOG.
Thank you!
An epic guitar solo by an epic guitar player in a epic song from an epic concert by an epic band, thanks wonder momma, epic work
😅😊 Thank you, very kind.
😍👌💥💯🎶
There you go folks! D. Gilmour and his Fender hardly ever fails to catch your soft spots... 😉
All the points, props and grains of sand to our OG MOMMA's bag for this compilation.
(and there's nothing wrong to feel 'misty' while listening this gem of Classic Rock ✌️🥰)
🤘😎🇫🇮💙
Thank you Jaska!
This was voted best guitar solo of all time by Planet Rock listeners, Freebird came second. Hard to imagine this ever being beaten or any solo even coming close to replicating the emotion this make you feel. I am 61 and i cry very time i hear it! It takes you to a place beyond the numbness in my best quote here. Amazing edit so appreciate the effort taken to give us this compilation. Awesome effort!
I remember seeing Pink Floyd live in the late 1980’s at Western Springs in New Zealand with 60,000 other people and its something once seen and heard can never ever be forgotten. Live that guitar solo sounds exactly that, alive.
I grew up listening and its so beautiful seeing the current generations listening! It gives me chills! I love all of you so much! Awesome channel! Keep going 💪💪❤️😍🔥🔥
My generation had the best music hands down and we were lucky to have the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s music. 3 decades of awesomeness. I talk and brag about the music I grew up with to anybody and everybody who will listen. I am almost 61 years old now and I am hell-bent on keeping this music alive. I preached it to my kids growing up and now my grandkids. I tell my kids all the time when I die the torch is yours make sure you keep this music alive. I often wonder who will fight over my collection of vinyl. Keep this good music alive y’all we’re counting on you.✌🏻😎
It's just not the same. There are no touring bands like back in the day. I live in a smaller midwestern town, Iowa City. Late 70's early eighties here, there were 2-3 very good bands playing at different venues every weekend. The first year the arena opened here, I saw Fleetwood Mac, The Police, Billy Joel, Joe Walsh, Yes... They don't even have concerts there anymore. Bands just can't get good together by playing anymore. A lot of producing and sampling.
@@patrickorourke2369 that is more true for some areas but I go to concerts all the time. In the last nine months I’ve seen Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, America, Daughtry, Doobie Brothers, Tears for Fears, Loverboy with Styx and REO Speedwagon who toured together and then the last one I went to was Commodores touring with Santana. On average I go to about 6 to 10 concerts a year.
The World could use a moving song right about now. This is truly a moving experience for anyone who loves music and where it takes you, Loved everyone's reaction. Great job putting this video out, Bravo!
This song has arguably the greatest guitar solo to EVER be played live. David Gilmour is a guitar good! MammaOG you should do some more Gilmour and show them what he’s really like outside of the Pink Floyd songs.
That is a great suggestion. Sort of how I did for Neil Peart. I am going to seriously noodle that!
@@WonderMommaOG maybe Shine On You Crazy Diamond from Pompeii 2016 would be a good start.
We saw Pink Floyd’s Pulse concert twice. It’s was soooo awesome! Had to see it twice! Their music seems so loud but I’ve never walked out not being able to hear after the show. Sound is so perfect every time! They are definitely a show Not to miss! Love love love Pink Floyd ❤️
Who has seen the wall movie? This song is about Pink as a baby remembering his father, “Just a fleeting glimpse out of the corner of his eye”. But then his father went to war and was killed. So Pink grew up always wanting a father but “the child has grown, the dream is gone”.
Oh yeah, another Floyd popped up and from Pulse, so Im def on it. The KShavon Crew had me crying dedicating this song to me in a rough wk. Ive so been to that point of high emotion listening to them like, HalfLifeSistah's reaction, Thanx so much, take care, Peace
I love the original recording of "Comfortably Nunb" off the "Wall" album, but to see them perform "Comfortably Numb" live was one of the greatest things I have witnessed in my life!
Not only is the music and performance just beyond words and one of my favorites, but I have to say I was thinking about how long it must’ve taken you to edit this compilation so I truly appreciate that you added your process at the end…amazing work!
Wow, thank you!
That my friends is what we called Head Music in the 70’s. You didn’t need drugs for the head trip - but they did make it more fun. Got to see them live and it was incredible
David's solo just reaches every fiber of your soul! By far the greatest live solo of all time!! not even close!
Каким нужно быть гением, что бы написать такую музыку, которая вызывает такие эмоции у людей. Мне 70 лет и я слушаю и слушаю это чудо, душа вырывается наружу от этих звуков.
One of the things that I love about the visual element of this concert performance is that it gives perhaps a more hopeful interpretation of the song. Early in the song the colors are muted and relatively dim. But as the second guitar solo continues and our hearts soar the colors become more vibrant and bright until the "soul" at the center of the performance literally *opens* *up.* It becomes almost a refutation of the _The_ _Wall_ -- or perhaps an example of how your life can change if you learn from it.
That's a beautiful interpretation of that!
Wow….what a fantastic interpretation.
The original recording, the movie to it, it all lays out a very heavy falling into dystopian madness, and that’s literally where the character in the album and the movie goes from here.
But, this line performance, 40 years later, it’s light and wonderful. Refutation, absolutely.
I bought the DVD the week it came out, and the first time I saw this my goosebumps had goosebumps!
I've lost track of how many times I've seen it, and at the moment I have tears in my eyes.
It is GREAT to see young people actually being turned on to what has been my favorite Band since 1969.
THIS is MUSIC!!!
Thank you for that! I would like to share with you one of my Instrumentals that was very much influenced by Pink Floyd and David Gilmour in particular. I recorded this in 1992 on an 8 track machine. I am playing every instrument.
I hope you enjoy it. (It's quite emotional.) ruclips.net/video/Du-h_2o3H68/видео.html
I saw them in concert, 1994, Giants Stadium and they played this song. They had speakers set up all around the stadium. It was complete surround sound. It was absolutely amazing. And the visuals were next level. It wasn't a concert. It was a voyage.
complete surround sound.
I saw them in 94 too. By far the best show I’ve ever experienced
A voyage...yes. Excellent way to put it. Very emotional journey.
Cleveland Stadium 94. Probably 50, 000 people or more. The Stadium seated 80,000 so I'm probably a little low on the estimate. GREAT TIMES MAN!
@@brianbreining4614 Hell yeah bro!
I think your best video yet! David Gilmour, making people cry with his guitar for 50 years. So awesome seeing younger folks feel it for the first time. I saw this show in Foxborough, MA. and it changed the trajectory of my career in stage production.
The most amazing and sincere musical expression of pain and despair .. ever .
Seeing this live is one of the greatest highlights of my life
To live in that time and to hear them play live was nothing short or a miracle. When this and other Pink Floyd songs came out in the 70’s and 80’s we did not have cable TV, GAME CONSOLES, CELL PHONES AND A HOST OF OTHER THINGS the younger generations have to get in the way of life. We had music and artists like this and we lived our lives by the songs they sung and how it impacted us and our lives. There are MANY great artists from this era that you should listen to, so many I cannot put them all down here, but Pink Floyd was the best. When a new album came out everyone ran to the records store. The closest thing we had to MTV was each Friday’s ‘Wolfman Jack’ show that came on at 10;30pm and everyone would gather around the TV to hear live bands play. It is good, you the younger generations listen to music like this because it will BRING YOU BALANCE! Put your phones down; your tablets down, your Game Center’s and turn the lights down, get a black light bulb and listen. You will be free’r than you have ever been in your lives. Trust me; trust our baby boomer generation because w lived it!
I am touched by your comments. Couldn't have said it any better.
Seeing the "making of" at the end always drives home the sheer amount of work and creativity that goes into these. So glad I subscribed. It also helps me discover new reactors too. 😊
Absolutely amazing. Loved the reactions. For me the sign of great music is when it hits everyone regardless of musical tastes. Thanks for doing this.
This song is STILL giving chills to millions !!!!! Your vid is PROOF,,,,,💥💥💥👍😎
GREAT WORK,,,,as usual. 👍👍👍
Was at that gig! . I remember every second. It still fills my heart with joy x
Another superb compilation. Actually, my first time seeing/hearing the Pulse performance of this. I was pleasantly surprised by how close to the studio version it stayed, for the most part. And wow, that reaction by HalfLifeSistah! I really _felt_ that. Loved the fingerstyle acoustic rendition at the end.
Thanks for sharing how you compiled all reactions to "The best guitar solo ever", great work!
I keep forgetting how old i am watching these reactions. But it does feel good knowing that these works of art will stand the test of time. Thank you for putting the hard work. God bless you
I'm 56 and have seen them in concert. It was everything and more. They are rock royalty.
David Gilmour & his strings of emotion … he is my absolute favorite! No flash or hype just pure emotion and magic !! Love Pink Floyd !! 51 years & counting
I always feel like that solo is David pouring out his life's blood for the crowd. Pure emotion expressed through his art. Also from a technical/creative end your edditing of all those different sources into a coherent whole is amazing. You have a real talent.
Hell yea
I agree, the man doesn't make his guitar weep, he makes it bleed.
Dave Gilmour made that guitar cry in anguish. What a musician! Very glad that he also introduced the world to Kate Bush - maybe he felt his own genius wasn't enough and we needed more, haha! I used to play in bands, and watching this and feeling the emotional charge from that stage makes me miss it more than ever. There's nothing like it if you're an intensity junkie.
Love this Momma!!
I prefer studio as well but this live version is phenomenal!!
Thank you!! ❤👍🏽🥳
I agree. I rarely care for live performances over studio recordings but Pink Floyd is a rare exception. They are phenomenal live.
you prefer the studio ? wooo
Such a wonderful montage...thank you so much 😊... So well done. My first time on your channel...and I'm so old I can tell you I was there live October 1994 twice 🎉🎉
Love your efforts ❤
Thank you so much!
These are some of the most perfect moments rock music has ever produced. I love to see so many eager to partake. May none of us ever feel comfortably numb in our own lives.
This was the first concert I took my son to when he was 16 years old. It was 1994 Division Bell in Texas.
That’s awesome. I saw them in Tampa, 1994
With everyone's reactions it proves that you don't just listen to Pink Floyd, you experience it. This is my favorite PF song. It is the most relatable lyrics for me. Between the words and David Gilmore's guitar work brings out emotions that are overwhelming at times. Always appreciate when people hear PF for the first time and how they react to songs like this and to "Money", "Wish You Were Here", "Time", "Another Brick in the Wall", and so many others.
David Gilmour has one of the most versatile voices in music. Gorgeous. Saw them live during this tour. Rain was coming down and the lasers were pulsing. It was a spiritual experience.
Great job as usual Momma. This song, this VERSION, is one of the greatest live versions of any song EVER. Love that you chose it.
Amazing editing as well. 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
a momentary lapse of reason live is pretty much up there as well, esp for the energy
I find it insane how a piece of music exists that’s so powerful you can create a reaction video of people listening to it and they’re all simultaneously either vibing with it, bobbing their heads up and down, standing up and playing air guitar, sat in awe, literally shocked with their eyes wide open and their jaws dropped and even crying and hyperventilating, only music that truly comes from the soul can do that
I've been listening to this song since it first came out and I was a young teenager. How it STILL gives me Chills, I don't know. I am 57 years old now, it's still my favorite song, of all time, and I love watching young people and first time hearing Reactions. Watching folks moved to tears and really digging it. You guys should Google how Roger Waters came about the idea for the lyrics to this song. Pretty interesting. Rock On!!! Kodama Metal, your face is one of total amazement and I love it.
Dude... what a incredible work that you do. Masterpiece of edition. I listened to this song 25 years ago, as a teenager. That is so good to see decades later people having the same reactions...
Cheers from Brazil!
Same, Ricardo! Was completely blown away by this when i was a kid. And to now see it getting the recognition from the younger generation. It's amazing. Great music endures time.
Everyone is talking about the guitar solo. Yeah it's pretty good isn't it? I've been listening to it since the late 70s. While not nearly as often, I still haven't tired of the sound. Now it is accompanied by many memories.
My comment here is more to say what great editing you've done making this compilation.
Excellent work, thanks for the video!
